Sandblasting

Shot blasting is a mechanical surface preparation process used to remove rust, oxide layers, old coating residues, welding slag, and other surface contaminants from metal components. Abrasive media propelled at high speed by compressed air cleans and roughens the surface, creating an ideal profile for subsequent coating applications.

As one of the most critical stages of surface preparation, shot blasting significantly improves the adhesion of paint, metal coatings, and other protective finishes, thereby extending the service life of coated components. At Çinkosan, we utilize a tumble shot blasting process to deliver high-quality and consistent surface preparation.

• Effectively removes rust, oxides, and old coating residues.
• Creates an ideal surface profile for painting and coating applications.
• Improves coating adhesion.
• Reveals surface imperfections, supporting more effective quality control.
• Indirectly enhances corrosion resistance by improving coating performance.
• The tumble shot blasting process enables large quantities of components to be processed uniformly and efficiently.
• Fast and efficient surface preparation method suitable for high-volume production.
